Life hack: Klingon D7 and K'Tinga models in about 1:1000 scale

I prefer to have my starship models in about 1:1000 scale (similar to the large 1701-D sets by BlueBrixx and Lego). Unfortunately, the Klingon D7 and K'Tinga sets by BlueBrixx are in very different scales. However, the models are similar enough such that most people (including myself) would not know which model depicts which spaceship class. Thus, I bought both sets on eBay, swapped the plaques, and now I have two models in about 1:1000 scale! Of course, I did not anticipate how ridiculously oversized the large plaque looks when attached to a mini model.

Hall of Bricks stopped offering Star Trek minifigures

I just learned that the German online shop "Hall of Bricks" stopped offering Lego minifigures customized to resemble Star Trek characters (they called it "Cosmic fleet"). Some background for this decision was provided recently in a YouTube video (in German): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xdhbuBvop8 .
